Alfred Starbird edit

5x expanded by Hawkeye7 (talk). Self-nominated at 23:57, 1 June 2017 (UTC).

  • 5× expansion of 5 February 2017‎ version completed from 770 characters to 8,652 and nominated a day later. Duplication detector check of online sources [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] reveal no close paraphrasing issues (AGF some of the PDF refs which can't go through Dup detector). Article is well-sourced. Hook is 145 characters long (under 200 character max.) and is interesting. Ref 6 (verifying the hook) is a reliable source from the West Point Association of Graduates. QPQ done. Looks good to go! —Bloom6132 (talk) 03:10, 2 June 2017 (UTC)
